Gavin was born on 12/31/05, six weeks early, Heather was placed on the cardiac floor of Akron General then went into ICU several days later.  She was then flown to The Cleveland Clinic on 1/7/06.  Heather passed on 2/13/06 after we thought she was on the road to recovery.  She has touched a lot of lives and will live in our hearts forever.

If you are wondering, Kats-n-Kittens will continue, it was Heather's life.  Since the end of December, we have managed to place a good number of the rescued cats that resided in Heather and John's home.  Deb Miller, owner of Critter Castle and Heather's long time friend, has been holding cubicles for us to help place them.  Deb and Critter Castle are in no way affiliated with Kats-n-Kittens, just assisting in this time of need.  Heather and John had been the primary care givers for the cats with the occasional help of several volunteers and friends.  These friends and volunteers have been caring for the cats 100% since the end of December.  Many thanks to Stephanie and David Colledge and someone to be named with her permission. Without Heather full time, the population averaging around 80 lately is not possible.  There are still several foster homes and Cheryl Jarvis houses a number of cats in Butler.
